InCOngrnities of Toilet.

u.
1t Is pity that our women once in a
While do not exercise their minds as to
the proper time and occasion for certain
toilets. A flannel walking dress, with a
lace parasol is not restful to the eye, and
diamond pins and ear rings don't gar
nish rock cod and green corn at morn
ing market. If it were possible to teach
our suburban shoots Of fashion how to
dress we should be spared those incon-
gruities that now so try our sight and
temper. An era of good taste might be
!naugurated that would bring harmony,

Marvellous Little MOxie.

The MOXie craze is the latest, and it bids
fair to last. as the physicians say it takes
the place of stimulants and tonics leaving
no reaction. Consequently its place can
not be filled. The medical world, it is said,
have been waiting for some one to discover
its like, as stimulants are only temporary
relief, and are eventually as destructive to
nerve force as overwork and exhaustion.
Shmulants and medicines never cure ner-
vousness or nervous exhaustion. 1t is said
the Moxie does at once. Stops the appetite
for liquors as we'll, satisfies the nervous sys-
tenn as well, at once, leaving only the best
results

The practice of medicine in Russia is
exceedingly onerous and unremunera-
tive. A physician who fails to respond
to the summons of apatient, is punished
by q fine of fromfive to 100 roubles. II
the case was a dangerous one, and the
physician knew it, he may be impris.
oned in the jail for three months. The
legal fee for an ordinary visit is from
~ to fifteen cents; for an accouche-
ment, seyenty-five cents. These laws
are strictly enforced. An elderly Ger.
man physician, an invalid, was called,
on q stormy winter night, to attend a
case seven miles distant. He objected
to go unless he was reasonably remun-
Grated, naming his fee. The messen-
ger left to ascertain whether this
amount would be paid but did not re.
turn. The physician was subsequently
arrested, tried, and condemned TO
eight days imprisonment. Besides, he
had to pay his lawyer $3.50 in advance.

A DETERMINED PRIEST.

Rev. DIR. Curran Following in the Foot
steps of Rev. DR.. McGlynn.
New YORK, Aug. 4.-The Mail and Ex-
press says: The action Of Rev. DR.. Curran
in presiding over tho meeting Of the guests
at the picnic of the Eighteenth assembly
district, United Labor party, seated beside
DR.. McGlynn, thus plainly and publicly
putting himself on the Henry George plat
form, is likely to give him the prominence
he seeks, that Of being a martyr with his
friend DR.. McGlynn. There can no longer
be any doubt that this priest is
determined to defy the archbishop
and follow his old leader. He
was removed from his place as
assistant pastor at st. Stephens church be-
cause of his friendship for the excom-
municated priest. This not quelling his re-
bellious spirit, he was sent to the Hoboken
monastery for ten days to do penance. He
went and came back unchanged. Then he
was sent to country parish, but he bob
bed up again as determined as ever to
pursue the course that he has marked out
for himself. A Mail and Express reporter
was informed unofficially to-day that no
further warnings would be wasted on the
rebellious priest.
